Creating Backup Jobs

In Veeam Service Provider Console, you can configure Veeam Backup & Replication job settings on hosted servers.

You can configure the following job types:

A vSphere backup job defines a list of VMs to back up, a repository where to store backups, guest OS processing settings and a schedule according to which new backups must be created.

A Hyper-V backup job defines a list of VMs to back up, a repository where to store backups, guest OS processing settings and a schedule according to which new backups must be created.

A Cloud Director backup job defines a list of VMware Cloud Director organizations, datacenters, vApps and VMs to back up, a repository where to store backups, guest OS processing settings and a schedule according to which new backups must be created.

A backup copy job creates additional instances of restore points created by backup jobs.

Note:

Creating vSphere and Cloud Director backup jobs is available for Veeam Backup & Replication version 12.1 or later.

Creating Hyper-V backup jobs and backup copy jobs is available for Veeam Backup & Replication version 13.0.1 or later.

Make sure you have enabled Veeam Backup & Replication REST API access.
